GPS Systems...

Finally got around to investing in one of those GPS systems... Tom Tom that reads out turn by turn and street names... man... what a lifesaver they are. I always thought I had a good sense of direction. I mean you could drop me off anywhere in Australia and I would be able to get myself back home.

But for the love of money could not get my sense of bearing here although after two years am pretty comfortable in our own County and getting in an out of D.C. or Baltimore but get off the beaten track and I'm buggered.

The freeways / beltways over here can turn you around like you wouldnt believe and end up not having a clue where I am.. I used to joke with Jen that I always wanted to see this part of town when completely lost.

We were using mapquest and it prints you out a turn by turn direction but found it not accurate all the time and when you barrelling down the freeway at 75MPH / 120KMH unless you got your missus with you as navigator it can get pretty hairy trying to read a map whilst you feel like your driving in the Indy 500 with another couple of hundred cars around you all going the same way. Five lanes sometimes blowing out to seven or more as cars exit and enter the freeway.

Our first Snowman.

Snow was still on the ground and was sticking a little better today.. so Luke & I got into it..

You little bewdy... and what better attire could you ask for hey... ; - )

The Day After.

Snow Day..

Here it comes..

We missed one bout of snow whilst in Adelaide but were hit by another storm a few weeks later.
